Awesome! I've had a Strat now for a couple years (a '97 Roadhouse with
TexMex pickups) and I really love mine as well.

Sort of. Nothing on stage, but I pick up the Strat every so often and
crank it up. Always a good rush.

Sounds like it's time to get the system checked out. Maybe a small leak
somewhere.. The LX's A/C died about a month ago, but it was only
because the clutch on the compressor locked up. Bearings were shot.
After installing a new clutch it worked like new again. Lucky I didn't
have to replace the whole damn thing...

If you ever need parts, check out Tim (Musttanguy). He's still a great
resource for parts IMO, and you can't beat his service. He's at
